"Restore from backup!" is staring you in the face. You make regular backups with slapcat, of course?

Stop slapd -- looks like that part is already done. Then rm all files except for DB_CONFIG in your data directory, and use

slapadd -q -b "o=root dn" -l /path/to/backup.slapcat

and you'll be up and running in no time...

Hi All,

I installed OpenLDAP 2.3.39 & BDB 4.4.20 backend. Loaded data with slapadd. After that when I restart , I get the below error.

Any pointers to help fix this would be great.
